I am not sure about the effect of this change on a large scale
site.  If you do not have the project list file, originally we
just needed a stat per project, but now you open an extra file
(either "owner" or "config") and read it, once per every
project.

The project list page does that for every project, and it
actually is worse because it also needs to open yet another file
"description" from the directory.  It almost makes me wonder if
are much better of to have a single file per project to read all
the necessary information off of, instead of having to open many
little files (currently it is only two---owner and description.
But who knows what other little pieces of information you would
want to add next week).
